A
will be in exam
25
Why is the left side of the heart walls much thicker (myocardial thickness)?
Has to pump blood to whole body instead of just lungs
26
Features of the right atrium?
Anterior upper medial surface of the heart
Recieves blood from the superior and inferior vena cava and the coronary sinus (collects deoxygenated blood from the heart muscle (myocardium)
Has the Fossa ovalis, which is the remnant of a thin fibrous sheet that covered the formamen ovule (hole in heart, blood doesn't need to go to lung during fetal development)
27
Why would it be bad if Fissa ovalis was still open after fetal development?
Lots of blood wouldn't be pumped to the lungs and obtain oxygen
28
Features of the right ventricle?
Order from right ventricle to the pulmonary arteries is:
Pulmonary outflow track
Pulmonary semi-lunar valve
Pulmonary trunk
Right and left pulmondary arteries
29
Features of the left atrium?
It's very posterior
Recieves blood from the pulmonary veins
Blood passes from the left atrium to left ventricle via the bicsupid (mitral) valve
30
Features of left ventricle?
Pushes the blood into the aorta through the aortic valve
31
Features of tri/bi cuspid valves?
```
Tri = 3 parts of trap door
Bi = 2 parts of trap door
```
Have Chordae tendineae, holding valves in place
The Chordae tendineae are attached to the Papillary muscle, which is attached to the heart wall, which controls blood going in and out (also the pressure does)
When papillary muscle is relaxed, chordae tendineae are slack, blood can flow through
When Papillary muscle is contracted, chordae tendineae are taut and blood can't flow through
32
What is the coronary blood supply?
The hearts own blood supply
Have the right coronary artery that has branched off it the posterior interventricular artery and right marginal artery
Branching off from the left coronary artery we have the circumflex artery and the anterior interventricular artery
33

Tunica media- smooth muscle which constricts and dilates, external elastic lamina
Tunica externa- Vasa Vasorum, nerve fibres, lympahitcs
Elastin fibres
36
Features of elastic (conducting) arteries?
Thick walled arteries near the heart
37
Features of muscular arteries?
Distal to elastic arteries
Deliver blood to organs
*add notes from slide
38
Features of arterioles?
Smallest arteries
Lead to capillary bed
Control flow into capillary beds via vasodilation and vasoconstroction
39
Features of capillary bed?
Where exchange between blood and cells occur
Organised into interconnected beds
Vasomotion of precapillary sphincters controls flow, so they contract and prevent blood going into certain places
40
Features of capillaries?
Smallest blood vessel
Thin tunica interna, 1 cell thick
1 red blood cell at a time
Pericytes stableise the walls
41

44
Features of venules?
Formed when capillary beds unite
Very similar structure to veins
45
Features of veins?
Formed when venules converge
Composed of 3 tunics
Less smooth muscle than arteries
Act as capacitance vessels- blood reservoirs
Have valves to prevent backflow, muscles around veins contract to push blood up to heart
46
Why do we need blood?
Transportation:
Gases
Nutrients
Waste
Regulation:
pH
Body temperature
Osmotic balance

```
```

Nutrients
Gases
Regulatory substances
Waste products
```
49

51
Features of platelets?
Smallest part of blood
No nucleus
Disc shaped fragments
Involved in clotting:
52
Red blood cell production?
Low blood oxygen
Kidney release EPO
Stimulates RBC production in red bone marrow
RBC will start as Proerythroblasts and produce haemoglobin
Nucleus ejected to make sure there is enough room for Hb and a reticulocyte is formed
Reticulocytes escape bone marrow
In the next 1-2 days eject other organelles to become mature RBC
53
What does sickle cell anaemia do?
Genetic disease
RBC are sickle shaped and not bioconcave
Can't carry as much oxygen
Can get stuck in blood vessels
54
How many molecules of Oxygen per Hb?
4 as 4 Fe(2+) groups
When one binds increases affinity for more to bind
55
What does Hb do?
Hb binds to oxygen in capillaries surrounding alveoli
Delivers oxygen to tissues down it's concentration gradient
56
Oxygen transport within the muscle?
Myoglobin Shuttles oxygen from cell membrane to mitochondria
Myoglobin is a Iron containing protein in cardiac and skeletal muscle
Only 1 iron atom
Myoglobin Higher affinity for oxygen than Hb:
Even at low pressure
Intramuscular oxygen store
Enables oxygen transfer at low PO2
57
What is anemia?
When there is not enough blood, or blood does not have enough haemoglobin
Treated by transfusion, taking more iron or looking at diet
58
Ways in which people cheat at sport?
Inject EPO for more red blood cell development
Take out blood, more EPO made as lower RBC count, then inject blood back in before race

Loss of motor neurons at the spinal cord level
Reduction in type II fibres
Increased replacement of muscle with fat
90
What happens in changes of muscle metabolism as you get old?
Increase in mitochondrial DNA mutation
Decline in muscle mitochondrial protein synthesis, so decreased oxidative phosphorylation and ATP generation, results in more easily fatigued

Females
92
What can increase muscle mass in arthritis?
Training
93
What happens if you drink lots of water then do a BIA?
Intially body fat% will be measured higher as your weight has increased
But if you wait a bit, it will be measured lower, as water is a good conductor so will allow electricity to flow faster, and fat is an insulator which slows it down
94
BIA measures at what level?
Molecular
95
What is osteoporosis?
Disease characterized by decreased bone mass and bone tissue deterioration
Holes appear in the bone matrix due to mineral loss
96

Occurs very highly in women athletes
Also oligomenorrhea = irregular menstrual cycles
Both increase risk of bone loss and injury
97
